Hi Brad,

thanks for your patch!

Use this in new drivers:
#include <linux/gpio/driver.h>

So 2 bits per GPIO line in one register? (Nice doc!)

Write a comment that the chip only supports output mode,
because it repurposes SPI CS pins as generic GPIO out,
maybe at the top of the file?

I suppose these systems also actually (ab)use the SPI cs
for things that are not really SPI CS? Because otherwise
this could just be part of the SPI driver (native chip select).

Have you documented this?

Other than that this is a nice and complete driver.
